Spring Green Potato Soup

Spring Green Potato Soup is a delicious way to blend hearty potatoes with leafy greens. Romano leaves and frozen peas give this soup its wonderfully green hue. Potatoes and onions combine for a amazing flavor that's really brought to life by the spice of cumin and cayenne pepper. Dillweed gives the whole dish a great earthy flavor. When the days get warm, serve this healthy potato soup cold, but when the nights are chilly, you can serve this soup warm.

Notes


It's bright green when freshly made; the color lightens on storage but it's still appealing.



This soup can be made 3 days ahead and refrigerated and can also be frozen as long as 3 months.
